[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if you are out sick with a stomach bug? I would never go to the doctor for that! For the most part because it's too risky being too far from the loo at any point in time![/quote]

I had a project manager try and demand a doctor's note when I was home sick with norovirus.  It was right after Thanksgiving (my entire family caught the virus from a relative that came to dinner knowing they were still contagious!) and the PM was convinced I was trying to scam for more time at home with my family.

It was pretty humiliating having to explain to him that I couldn't leave my apartment to go to the doctor as I was pretty much guaranteed to crap myself before I made it out of the complex parking lot.    I then proceeded to dry heave while still on the phone with him so I had to hang up on him because there was no chance I was *only* going to vomit.  [/quote]

Did you even report to the PM? What a little toad. I hope you coughed on his/her keyboard. [/quote]

He wasn't my resource manager, just the PM for a project I was assigned to.  This was honestly the least problematic thing he did.  That dude was a POS.[/quote]
